THI ADMISSION AT THI DANCI WILL II !, (Tax Includad). - . , i v lb Industrial Revolution, there was ao uch thing a labor law. Tli altitude of Hi government waa that union war a "conspir acy" and were, therefore unlaw ful, and th policy of the Federal Government waa th policy of Suppression, But tti government learned In thl field, aa It always must In any field, Uiat whll organizations msv be suppressed, the Ulcus be hind them cannot be, Gradually over th year there grew up another policy of the Fed eral Oovernment-one which might be Urmed Neutrality. The govern ment, In affect, asld Uiat any con flict between union and manage ment Is their business and our policy I on of "hands off." During World War I under the first National Labor Board and In order to gt th production neces sary without delay caused by strlka or slowdowns, the govern ment recognised the potential poli tical power of unions and began th first move toward the third era at government policy with re- paet to organised labor-that of Intervention. The policy of Intervention came full flower In IU36 with the passage of the Wagnar Act which in effect put th power of the gov ernment behind the organising pr ions ' of Ih unions; a one-sided innuenca upon management . union relationship. TMs policy Inevitably aggra vated union abuses-among them the secondary boycott, Uie Juris dictions! strike, the closed shop and the closed union, all to Uie detriment of the public. i In 1M7 th National Labor-Man-agemtnt Relation Act, belter known as th Tsft Hartley Act, was passed by the Congress, ve toed by th President, and passed again over his veto. The pannage ol th Taft-HarUey Act marked a new era of government phlloaphy with respect to union- philosophy ol Public Interest. That a coalition or understand ing between big government and big unions ha resulted In by-passing Uie Act' provisions has In som measure obscured Uie public Interest. Thl doe not weaken the basic concept however: for Uie underlying purpose of Uie Tall Hartley Act Is still there, and with It Imperfections II Is still Uie most workable national labor law we hev had-and Its provisions do pro tact th Individual employee and Uie public generally. Charge have been made Uiat the Tafl Hartley Act was passed In hysteria. This I not true. It wss the result of months of hesrlngs before both houses of Congress dur ing which millions of words of testimony were isxen irom in terested person In all parts of the country. There was ample debate upon Ih floor of both houses. Budget For Welfare Up PORTLAND I The Slate Public Welfsre Commission Friday approved a budget of 16(1.400.000 for the im-ltii period.

S. and Belgian Infantrymen today beat off 300 Chinese Reds In a fierce seven-hour battle for a hill on the Korean Western Front. The Reds broke off the fight at dawn. Allied patrol reported "many, many Chinese dead" littered the battle area. Elements of the Third Infantry Division's Seventh Regiment de fended the peak snuaiea miles northeast of Kelly Hill In the Chorwon sector. A Belgian unit attached to the division lought briefly with a band of Reds 800 yards to the west and then rushed Into the main battle alongside Uie Americans. The Air Force announced eight Russian-built MIG lets were shot down during the week. One TJ N plane, a prop-driven F1F Tigercat, ... inat tn unexplained causes. The eight Communist let kills made a record total of 4 shot down during September by AU led pilots. The previous mw "'" of 44 was set last April. Gen. James A. Van Fleet, com mander of the U. S. Eighth Army, congratulated Allied unius for re capturing Old Baldy on Uie West ern Front and defending key hills near the Punchbowl a week ago. He praised the South Korean Eighth Division for a "ro?!'"11; performance" In the Punchbowl sector. He messaged the 38th Regiment of the U. 8. Second Infantry Divi sion that Its performance at Old Baldy "against a determined Communist force supported by In tense artillery and mortar fir exemplifies the spirit and resolute ness of this command." US Business caught some of the optimism and prices on the average enjoyed Its best advance In two months. There still were differing opin ions on bow much of the good bust- was created bv defense orders. Secretary of the Treasury Bnyder said the nation Is In a "real pros perity" supported by mora perm anent Items than defense spend ing. He aald a swelling population and a large backlog of per sonal savings nrovld a solid base for the economy.

Cost Survey farm products gets back to farm ers; and how a wage Increase affects labor costs, profits and prices. In a letter to trade commission chairman James M. Mead, Tru man asserted "the consumer has a right to know who is getting bis dollar." "When he pays a hlgaf price at the retail store how much of that price does the retailer get?" Tru man asked. "How much does the wholesaler get? How much goes for transpor tation? "How much did it cost the man ufacturer to produce the product, and of those manufacturing costs, how much went to labor, to ma terials, to overhead and so forth?" The President said that no com prehensive data on this subject ever has been prepared by a gov ernment agency. But be Insisted government must nave the facta if it is to deal intelligently and responsibly with the major interest groups in the country.

On the other side of th fane were economists who took th view things would fall flat without defense dollars. Industrialist generally law corf ttnued good business through the rest of this year. But many weren't ready to blueprint an over-all pat tern for 1953. Sumner H. SUchtor. Harvard University economist, looked way ahead and said a "mild" rtcea aion was possible when defense spending slacken m 1954. Moses waa reported to be fciabaV lne on a side stipulation that th higher contract terms wouldn't be come effective until approved by the Kovernment'i wage Stabilisa tion Board. Moses denied thla to reporter, and Lewis bad no com ment, but the reports persisted. Lewis was said to be ralstlnsr such a stipulation, contending tt waa the Industry's Job to gat gor emment approval. Ha waa repre sented aa wanting to keep bis hands free to call miners out on strike. In case the WBB disap proves the aizeable wage and roy alty boosts, or gives only partial approval. Th negotiated wage Inc.cM la more than 11 per cent above pres ent pay rates, whereas only a per cent Increase Is allowable to uie miners under self-administer-ing rules of the WSB. The agency can, and sometimes does, exceed the self-administering rules, how ever, in passing on some wag cases. A stipulation that the wan hnnut wouldn't be payable until th WBB approves it would, however, give the Industry protection against the possibility the WSB may not com up with a ruling, one wu ar an. other, by Oct. 15. That la the date the higher wages are to be distributed in semi-monthly paychecks. Without a wbb ruling, the industry Tro'Ud be faced with a possible choice of a strike in the mines if they don't pay the higher rates and violating stabilization rules. If they ao pay tne increase without govern, ment approval. Despite this difficulty, th nxi. Ing among persons close to th coal talks was that Lewis and Moses would finally complete a formal contract, and the the South ern owners would probbbly sore to similar term to avoid any walk out.
